**SA 516 Grade 65** is a medium carbon steel grade primarily used in the construction of welded pressure vessels that operate at moderate to lower temperatures. It consists of **carbon (≤0.26%)**, **manganese (0.85–1.20%)**, **phosphorus (≤0.035%)**, and **sulfur (≤0.035%)**. This material boasts a **minimum tensile strength of 450–585 MPa** and a **yield strength of at least 240 MPa**. Typically supplied in a normalized state, this enhances its toughness and resistance to brittle fractures. It’s easy to weld and form, and its excellent strength-to-weight ratio makes it a great choice for heavy-duty structures and pressurized systems in demanding environments.
